Let’s just cut to the chase. Thus far the 2017 season has been somewhat of a disappointment. The Chicago Cubs are not looking like the juggernaut we thought they would be, and they have given us little sign that they can be. However, that is not to say that the season is lost or that the Cubs are not going to repeat this year. Part of that blame has to go to the Cubs themselves. After all, last year they dominated baseball from beginning to end. They have put on themselves some pretty lofty expectations that they themselves cannot live up to.
